Join CBLDF To Defend The First Amendment!

We're in uncertain times where the CBLDF's efforts are more important than ever. It's unclear how government - federal, and especially local - will treat the First Amendment. CBLDF is prepared to defend the rights of everyone in our field, and we need your support! Please join CBLDF today. For as little as $5 per year, you can be counted as a member and help us do the important work needed to protect the right to read!

CBLDF's work is vitally needed. This year our legal team has already been deployed to help artists and educators who need our help in First Amendment emergencies. We're actively working to help strike down unconstitutional laws. Perhaps most importantly, we're developing major education initiatives to support our community. We will visit retailers on their home turf to help them understand how to protect their rights in subtle everyday ways. We will create practical resources about the rights and responsibilities of being a creator. We will acquaint younger citizens with a full understanding of how the First Amendment intersects with their lives as they raise their voices for the first time in a perilous climate. We can't do this important work without you!

We have membership plans for donors in every budget, each with its own premiums and benefits, and all of them are tax-deductible. Of course, the number one benefit of membership is peace of mind. You’ll know that there’s someone at the other end of the phone when a reader’s freedom to read is attacked, a retailer gets busted, a graphic novel is challenged in libraries, an artist is brought up on charges — all for exercising their First Amendment rights! Become a member of CBLDF, and help preserve comics as a vital medium for this century!

These extraordinary times require vigilance. CBLDF is ready to fight for the First Amendment. Please support our important work by joining the Fund today!
